Event:	S_EVENT_RUNWAY_TAKEOFF	Added with: 2.9.6

Enum ID:	54	Event Locality: None
Description:	Occurs when an aircraft leaves the ground and takes off. Initiator : The unit that tookoff place: Object from where the AI took-off from. Can be an Airbase Object, FARP, or Ships

Table Format:	The takeoff event table is in the following format. Event = { id = 54, time = Time, initiator = Unit, place = Airbase, subPlace = 0 }

Examples:
Notes:	DCS 2.9.6 changed the functionality of the takeoff and land event effectively applying their previous behavior to runway_takeoff, runway_touch. For example an aircraft that "bolters" a landing on the aircraft carrier will now call runway touch, runway takeoff rather than land and takeoff.
Events:	shot, hit, takeoff, land, crash, ejection, refueling, dead, pilot_dead, base_captured, mission_start, mission_end, took_control, refueling_stop, birth, human_failure, detailed_failure, engine_startup, engine_shutdown, player_enter_unit, player_leave_unit, player_comment, shooting_start, shooting_end, mark_added, mark_change, mark_remove, kill, score, unit_lost, landing_after_ejection, discard_chair_after_ejection, weapon_add, landing_quality_mark, ai_abort_mission, weapon_drop, runway_takeoff, runway_touch,

-|notes= DCS 2.9.6 introduced a change with regard to take-off and landing events. There is now a separate event for when a player in SP or the host in MP takes off and lands. The existing takeoff and landing event will still occur for every other aircraft. Clients in MP should also get the existing takeoff and landing event.
